Summary
“One Big Beautiful Bill” & Supreme Court Shakeups – What You Need to Know
In this episode of Verdict with Ted Cruz, we break down the latest developments in U.S. legislation and landmark Supreme Court rulings that are reshaping the political landscape.
🏛️ Major Legislative Update: “One Big Beautiful Bill” Passes Key Senate Vote
The Senate advanced a sweeping legislative package with a 51–49 procedural vote, including support from two Republicans. Key highlights:
- Tax Relief: Blocks a $4 trillion tax hike by preserving the 2017 Trump tax cuts.
- Tax Exemptions: No federal taxes on tips, Social Security, or overtime pay.
- Border Security Boost: $150 billion for wall construction, ICE, Border Patrol, and surveillance tech.
- Military Modernization: $150 billion to counter China and upgrade U.S. defense systems.
- 6G Spectrum Auction: Federal spectrum sale to fund innovation and next-gen wireless tech.
- School Choice Expansion: Launches the largest federal school choice initiative in U.S. history.
- Investment America Accounts: $1,000 seed accounts for every child with tax-free growth potential.
⚖️ Supreme Court Decisions: Conservative Wins Reshape Legal Norms
Three major rulings signal a shift in judicial philosophy:
- Nationwide Injunctions Curbed: Limits district judges from issuing universal injunctions—seen as a win for executive authority.
- Texas Age Verification Law Upheld: Requires age checks for adult websites, framed as a child protection victory.
- Parental Rights in Education: Parents in Maryland can now opt out of LGBTQ+ curriculum, reinforcing religious liberty and parental control.
